Is it more respectful to use more current photos of people who have died? Or is it better to use photos from their "prime"? - eviltoast

Just had this thought and I’m caught between the two. Assuming anything being considered were all “good” photos, what would you prefer if it were you?

*Lots of great responses! I do want to clarify that I am not currently dealing with this scenario myself, but I appreciate the thoughtful comments. Hopefully they can help people that are struggling. I know I’ll keep them in mind for the future.

    How long do you think Joe Smith’s family is going to maintain that site, given that it costs real money?
